Hi All, i went for an early scan this week, mainly because i got increasingly bad pains on my right side. My m/w thought i was 6 weeks pregnant but the sonographer said the embryo was so small she could not find a heartbeat and estimated actually just over 5 weeks. She has suggested i go back in 2 weeks time for another scan.
In the letter she gave me, it says "viability unconfirmed". does this simply refer to the fact the baby is too small to hear a heartbeat or does she think it has effectively stopped growing and wants to confirm? It doesn't sound very nice but i am trying not to worry!
